Should we take a chance on this C4?

We had her serviced...so she has been flushed, both tranny and cooling, oil changed and a couple of expected leaks fixed. Mechanic says she looks great, both the topside and the nether regions! Now we have to do the headlight motors and try to figure out why she doesn't "chirp" when you leave the key in and open the door. Also still trying to get the PKE system to completely recognize the fob. I have contacted the "fob fixer" and have her address. Maybe get the fob checked out, just to make sure it isn't the problem...anyhow, thanks again for all your thoughts on our new "baby". Even though it really is hubby's car, I do feel a connection to her. I did find out that there were only 1,437 Dark Red Metallic '95 corvettes made, so she is kinda special in her own way.

ok, I held the key in, opened the door-no chirp. I can go thru the programming steps, and all seems to go correctly. When we get to the PKE flashing and bring the fob to the car, PKE never goes solid. But when we take the key out, close the door and walk away, the car locks and the horn beeps. When you walk back, nothing happens...does not unlock and the buttons do not open the hatch or passenger door. So I think it is the fob. Hubby thinks it is the module. That means taking out the dash...

One more thing, check fuses 26, 40 and 42.

I sent the fob out today to the lady who repairs them. That way, it is one less thing to check. It has a brand new battery, but there may be something cracked that we can't see or fix. We checked the fuses you mentioned and they are all good. Let's hope it is the fob...
